As I've mentioned many, many times before, I am no gaming enthusiast. I know that comes as a shock and/or surprise to so many, mostly because there appears to be some die-hard internet rule that those of us who worship at the altar of 'All Things Sci Fi' are supposed to be magically and mystically drawn to computer games. Never was, and I probably never will be.

Still, I appreciate a good game-based cinematic adaptation as well as the rest of you, especially when they are pulled from the realm of SciFi ... and as I've been led to believe the gaming Borderlands definitely is.

This morning, Variety is reporting that the ever-reliable Lionsgate has put a film based on said franchise in development, and I suspect that'll have gamers (and SciFi junkies) everywhere frothing at the mouth ... or is that " with an itchy trigger finger?"
